[Doug Smith <doug@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I just remembered that I have not posted my latest article here yet. 
Although the article is on a case of low frequency coupling between 
equipment enclosures, it contains three links to similar effects at 
the PWB level on my website. The article is linked from the drawing of 
two equipment cabinets and grounding cables at the bottom of the index 
page of http://emcesd.com . I have also added a paper I published on 
computer simulation of ESD and lightning events some years ago, but 
much if it is still useful including some of the examples used. The 
link is at the top of the list of published papers near the top of the 
index page.

Abstract: Metal planes in close proximity, whether circuit boards or 
sheets of metal, are tightly coupled at high frequencies. The 
frequencies involved need not be all that high in some instances. 
Adjacent equipment cabinets are one such case. Computer simulation is 
used to show that noise or EMI arriving at one cabinet over equipment 
cables can strongly couple to an adjacent cabinet, possibly affecting 
operation.
